Where to start.  Clean up the choke linkage and get it working freely.  Odds 
are that's why it starts easily when cold but bogs when warm.

Depending on the year of your transmission, you may have an unsynchronized 
1st gear.  Those are a booger to get into 1st without double clutching.  But 
stock I believe you should be synchronized and it should easily go into 
gear.

Just because your taillights work doesn't mean the brake light filaments are 
good.  Though it's highly unlikely that all of them are bad.  Dirty 
connector upstream of the bulbs is most likely.  Similar the reverse light.
